Adsense Cheaters..................

Of course it shouldn't be surprising that there are adsense "cheaters" around. Groups have been formed wherein members click on each other's adsense ads to generate more clicks thus creating more earnings.

Although I'm beginning to find more and more of these groups I can't condone participating in such groups. All Google's Adsense has to do is be notified of these groups, note the members (and this wouldn't be hard because the member list can be easily seen by almost everybody) and take the necessary action.

It's such a shame that there is a legitimate to make money using your blog or website and then something like this comes along and may possibly ruin it for those of us that adhere to the rules of Adsense.

Security Breach!

Adsense has to be very, very careful about their eagerness to help those people that are still trying to learn Adsense. There is an Adsense Blog, Adsense Question and Answer forums and even help information on Adsense's main page. Don't get me wrong though because Adsense provides a lot of resources to help people to better learn Adsense. But as I was surfing around and checking some related information I found a site of Adsense's that inadvertently let slip some information about one of the ways that they use to determine invalid Adsense clicks! Whoa! Do you know how valuable knowing this kind of information would be!

I don't think that Adsense is aware of it or they might not have given it another thought! But can you remember a time when you were just trying to be helpful and you let something "slip"?

Invalid clicks has been the most often cited reason why an Adsense account has been banned. Even though I have read the message forums where people have posted about their Adsense accounts being banned because of invalid clicks and them saying that they did nothing of the sort, I now know one of the ways that Adsense determines invalid clicks and I have to tell you that this method is a very good indicator that invalid clicks are being made.
